I was surprised to find out how much the U.S. actually does spend on education, given how shitty it is. Idk where the money is going, but it's definitely funded
I'm not sure if I'm reading the data wrong or what, but that usafacts.org says 35% of people 25 or older have at least a bachelors degree. When I checked the census data, it says only 27.4% have that... https://data.census.gov/table/ACSST1Y2021.S1501?q=EDUCATIONAL%20ATTAINMENT&g=010XX00US$0400000&tid=ACSST1Y2021.S1501
